Pipe a takes 10 hrs to fill a tank but due to a leakage, it takes 5 hrs more. how long will a leak take to empty the tank if it is completely filled?

A. 45h = 1,575

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of trapezoid = 1,575 cm² (given)

We are given the length of both bases, a = 63 cm and b = 27 cm

We need to find the formula that will enable us determine its height (h).

Thus:

Area of trapezoid = ½(a + b)h

Plug in the values

½(63 + 27)h = 1,575

½(90)h = 1,575

45h = 1,575

The answer is A. 45h = 1,575
